Chapter 503: The Unknown Realm (2)

Under the desperate resistance of the "advance team", these strange plants as ferocious as fierce beasts were finally temporarily repelled, but even so, several members of the "advance team" who were swallowed by the plants were no longer breathing, and only half of the fifteen people were left so far, and everyone was injured.

In particular, the squad leader of the "advance team" had his right arm cut off from the elbow, and the bleeding stopped, and the squad leader himself basically lost his combat capability, and two other wounded were also injured to a similar extent, and the "advance team" was tantamount to a serious attrition.

Fortunately, the "elite team" did not want to abandon the "advance team", after realizing what happened to the "advance team", the "elite team" reached a unity of opinion, and all members began to move towards the depths of the dense forest, on the one hand, to help their companions, and on the other hand, to catch the worm again.

Unable to catch the bugs, they couldn't explain to Rebecca.

Although the "advance team" had already found the weaknesses of those plants, their number was too small, and the number of plants was too large, even if they stared at those fleshy big pockets, they were just barely delaying time, and they couldn't really do anything about these plants.

Fortunately, the "elite team" arrived in time, and the people and horses on both sides converged, and the firepower instantly suppressed the momentum of the plants' attack, and quickly turned the situation around.

One or two bullets are indeed tenacious vines, but more than ten or twenty rounds, hundreds or thousands of rounds, the "advance team" has not much else, that is, there are many guns and bullets, don't look at them in the sandstorm and the troops were separated, but they managed to save a few large trucks loaded with all kinds of materials, and the bullets were as many as they wanted.

The only thing that can be called a "hidden danger" is that the food and water carried by the "advance team" are obviously insufficient, and it is okay to say that food or something, but I didn't expect the weather in the barren land to be so hot, and the high temperature makes people's appetite drop greatly.

However, the problem of clear water is very serious, which is also the reason why the "advance team" would rather resist the attack of the big spider swarm before, and must defend the well in the wooden house, - how far they can go in this desert depends entirely on the amount of clear water carried by the team, without clear water, everything else is nonsense.

Helped the "advance team" solve a large area of plants that could eat people, and the ground was full of stumps, severed arms and plant remains, and in this battle between humans and plants, the former won in the end.

In order to eradicate the grass and roots, everyone dug up most of the plants from the soil, gathered together, poured gasoline on the fire, and burned them directly to ashes.

Through this battle, everyone learned that this strange plant existed in the world.

The most conspicuous thing should be their "stomach pouch" that can swallow people in one bite, the outside is a layer of fleshy walls, and the inside will secrete a very viscous translucent digestive juice, once the prey is wrapped in this digestive juice, it is difficult to break free, and it will soon be drowned alive in the "stomach pouch".

Underneath the "stomach pouch" is a stem connected to the body of the plant, which is used to digest prey, and a large number of vines grow on the body of the plant to catch prey.

As for the shrubs, they are the camouflage that this plant uses to protect the body, not another moving plant, in short, these are vines, branches, and large "stomach pouches", which actually grow from one plant, and the whole thing is one plant.

They were the ones who surrounded the "advance team" in the middle just now, but now I have roughly counted them, and the number is about twenty or thirty, and the size of each plant is different, probably due to the different years of growth.

Normally, this plant hides its body in the soil, and only uses the bright color of the "stomach pouch" to attract prey, and if it is within its attack range, it will swallow it by surprise.

If necessary, they don't mind using their vines to entangle their prey and strangle them to death before swallowing them into their "stomach pouches".

In today's situation, when they feel that there are a lot of prey, the plant will crawl out of the soil and use their roots to move slowly, so as to achieve a better purpose of hunting, it all depends on whether the number of prey is worth it for them to get up, after all, burrowing out of the soil will cause them to break off a lot of roots, and they need a lot of nutrients to be able to grow again.

This is really unheard of.

The "elite team" everyone has never heard of such a plant in the world, no wonder people call the barren land a forbidden area of life, and say that there are many unknown monsters here, everyone used to listen to these as stories, but today they look at it like this, only to know that this kind of thing is not groundless.

Plants can run all over the ground, so what about the animals that live here, aren't they all green, and can also photosynthesize with the help of sunlight, and of course, the deepest fear hidden in everyone's heart, those experimental subjects who are called "monsters" in the first place, what will they look like?

Thinking of this, everyone in the "elite squad" couldn't help but feel worried, who knew what would be waiting for them in the deeper part of the jungle, but it was still the same sentence, what would they take to explain to Rebecca if they couldn't catch the bugs.

So even if they knew that there were more dangers hidden in this wood, they had to ask Rebecca to screw off their heads one by one when they went back empty-handed, and in this case, the "elite team" still had to fight hard.

"The whole team! One group was responsible for sending the wounded out of the woods, back to join up with the group guarding supplies, standing by while the rest regrouped and moved on. ”

Orders were passed down one by one, and the "elite squad" was soon ready to move towards the depths of the dense forest.

……

Following the trail of dragging, the turtledove and the worm came to a swamp.

"No way?"

Looking at the shallow swamp with green bubbles bubbling out in front of him, the turtledove looked down at the trail of drag that stretched intermittently all the way here, thinking that whatever it was that dragged the owner of the pistol in the little worm's hand here, it must have ended up in this swamp.

The crux of the matter, however, is that such a swamp is a natural trap, with knee-deep shallow water above it and mud below that can swallow anything, and when you step on it, you will quickly sink and never pull it out.

"Look! Looks like there's something over there! ”

The turtledove was observing the situation in the swamp, and the insect next to it suddenly made a discovery.
